NOVEMBER ON THE SEAS.
The Hurricane Season over and Fair
Weather Looked For.

w edCner Looked For.
The last pilot chart of the North Atlantic
ocean has just been received. In the fore
cast for November it says: "The West
Indian hurricane season is practically
ended, and the gales which are encountered
with increasing frequency north of the 10th
parallel are mostly from the westward and
northwestward. During the winter
months the usual track Of storm
centres, or areas of low bar
ometer is to the eastward across the
Northern United States and Canada, and
then about east northeast over the Atlantic.
During the passage of each of these areas of
low barometer westerly gales are felt at
positions to the southwark of its track At
least three or four of these gales are likely
this month to attain the force of a storm.
Little or no ice will be encountered south of
the parallel, and fogs will be much more
frequent, owing to the prevailing north
westerly (off shore) winds. The northeast
trades will be light and somewhat variable. y

his wife has suffered for seven years
with a complication of diseases, of
which Asthma was the most prevalent.
She has not laid down in bed for seven
years. He has expended all the money

relief for her, but without any success
whatever. He was advised by physi-
clans to try P. p. p. He finally did so,
expecting to derive no benefit, but after
taking less than two bottles eruptionS

began to improve, and now her skin is
perfectly clear. She sleeps soundly
every night on an ordinary pillow and
her general health has not been better
in years. Mr. Newman, who is mer-
chant in Lake City, is very enthusiastic
over the cure, and thinks it the grandeSt
blood purifier and tonic of the age.

COURSE LECTURES.
How They Can Be Made Interesting
and Acceptable.

The series Of entertainments which have
made the "Travel Club" famous for the
past few years is suggested to the managers
Of the lecture course at the national mu-
scum as a plan worthy Of imitation. The
"Travel Club" organized with a small
number Of persons for the purpose Of tell
Ing what they saw and heard in foreign
land. The early meetings were 80 success
ful that the membership increased rapidly,
and programme was determined on to
enlarge upon the subjects to bo discussed
at each gathering Of the club. II was de.
cided TO take each country In Europe and
tell everything about the same. As an ex-
ample Italy was traversed by the club,
and essayiets told about It's people, Its gov
ernment, It's learned men In all times, its
statesmen. It's painters and artists, It's musi.
clans and poets, its noted women, In fact all
that pertained to men aud affairs OF that
historic land. In this way the club has
quietly gone on diffusing knowledge In
popular way, Instructive and interesting,
and as IL has been found so beneficial and
acceptable to few, IL is reasonable to sup.
pose that the same course II pursued In a
broader scope through the instrumentality
OF the directors Of the national museum
would prove pleasure to those attending
the lectures at that place.
There may be good reasons offered by the
directors In opposition to this plan, and It
may not be possible TO put It In operation
this season, but II is believed that II an
effort was made at the next session Of Con-
gress to get an appropriation to carry
out series of popular lectures at
the museum on basis OF public
instruction that the same would be
obtained and the usefulness OF that popular
institution would be found to be four'fold.
The lectures on abstruse subjects are better
suited to the society room than to the public
hall. About year ago distinguished rep
reseutative to China told In an off-hand way
his life in that country. The lecture was
that pleasant the large audience extended
his time In order to allow him to finish.
The lecture following In the course, while
ably written, was upon subject that no
one Understood, and was interlarded with
scientific phrases that required some one
equally learned to interpret, and the large
audience was "bored" for two hours. In a
scientiflc body the lecture would have been
q success, but the same could not be said
Of an audience that often frequents the
lectures at the museum, which In large

Of affairs in a government department,
mentioned in an afternoon paper, reporter

out, thankful that the glorious cause of
civil service reform was being so carefully
guarded both by the commission aud the

bill this week by request.
Consul Merritt, Of AK Ia. Chapellc, "a In
the city. lie has accomplished some eX-
celent work In the interest OF our customs
revenue, during the sixteen months he has
been In the service.
Charles Neuer, United States consular
agent at Gera, Germany, has received over
two hundred dollars from the inhabitants
ef that place for the benefit OF the Charles
ton earthquake sufferers. This generous
contribution from our German friends
shows that the world after all Is but com.
mon brotherhood of men. We are pleased
to report that the voice OF suffering which
comes to us from the classic shores of the
Mediterranean has been heard with general
sympathy throughout our county, and very
substantial collections are being made for
the relief Of the sufferers.
Consul Rice, OF Switzerland, has done
eminently good work for the government In
detecting and correcting the differentiation
OF invoice prices at his post. II is said that
he has saved to the customs revenue of our
country over 100000 during the past three
years. This Is certainly something for our
paIsimonious legislators TO consider when
they attempt to cut down the salaries OF
our Consuls. III they will only inform
themselves OF the valuable work performed
10y the consul corps there will be no trouble
about getting appropriations large enough
TO carry out some needed improvements in
the service.

WORRYING HIS FAMILY.
The Strange and Unacuuuntable Disap-
pearance of Harry L. Adams.

pearance of Harry L. Adams.
Up to late hour last night no things
had been received from Mr.. Harry L.
Adams, the booRkeeper at the Office Of the
Erening Star, who has been missing for
several days. The mystery of his departure
is still unraveled, and his absence from
home unaccoun.ed for. His books are per-
fectly correct, and the affairs OF the late
Mr.. George W. Adams, which were In his
charge, are exact In every particular. Dur
ing the eight years In which Mr.. Adams has
served the Star his business relations have
been strictly honest and conscientious, SO
that nc suspicion OF crookedness can posi-
bly, be entertained.
The only supposition left, therefore, is
the one that he has allowed his appetite for
intoXicants to overcome his better judg.
ment and gone on an extended "tear.n
He had In bis possession about 5000 of his
own, part Of the semi-annual dividend on
an income left him by brother who died
come time ago. Friends who are acquainted
with him think 1t more than probable tnat
that he went to Baltimore, as the note he
sent his wife intimated; 10 fact. It ia almost
a certainty that he is not In the city, for a
out. Private detectives have investigated
and found nothing. The police were noti-
fed, and, so far, have been equally unsuc-
cessful.
Mr.. Adams's wife is very much dis
tressed OF his prolonged absence, aud can
offer no suggestion as to his possible
whereabouts. She has heavy burden of
grief to bear in addition to caring for seven
small children.
